1. A soluble sweetener composition, suitable for human consumption, the soluble sweetener composition comprising: one or more polysaccharide(s) comprising one or more soluble polysaccharide(s); and at least two oligosaccharides comprising at least two of oligosaccharides (i)-(vi):
(i) a cello-oligosaccharide having a degree of polymerization (DP) from two to six;
(ii) a xylo-oligosaccharide having a DP from two to twelve;
(iii) a manno-oligosaccharide having a DP from two to twelve;
(iv) an arabinoxylo-oligosaccharide having a DP from three to fifteen;
(v) a mixed-linkage glucan oligosaccharide having a DP from two to five; or
(vi) a chito-oligosaccharide having a DP from two to twelve, wherein the soluble sweetener composition comprises the one or more soluble polysaccharide(s) and the at least two oligosaccharides at a weight ratio from 1:100 to 1:1.
